The good news: The two actors knew fans would want to see Seinfeld’s Machiavellian mailman come face-to-face with Genoa City’s Machiavellian makeup mogul, so they got together and filmed a perfect scene: Newman meeting Victor Newman!

In the clip above, Knight — who’s popping into G.C. as a music promoter, Irv West, who’s going to do some biz with Mariah, Noah, and Devon — knocks on a door that’s opened by Braeden, who drags out his obligatory “Hello, Newman” for a deliciously long time.

We know — the payoff is so good we want to put it on a loop too.

Wayne Knight will guest-star on The Young and the Restless Thursday, Sept. 21, and Friday, Sept. 22, on CBS.
